	<span lang=\"EN-US\">The objective of this paper is to model the
main reactions that take place in </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">the </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">Claus reactor furnace and compare it with
actual data and simulated process. Since the most important point is the
selection of suitable reaction conditions to increase the reactor performance, </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">the </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">model
is formulated to predict the performance of </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">the </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">Claus plant. To
substantiate the theoretical model, we used actual process condition and feed
composition in Shahid Hasheminejad Gas Refinery. Model equations have been
solved </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">by </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">using MATLAB program. Results from MATLAB are compared with those
from SULSIM<sup>?</sup><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"line-height:15px;\"> </span>simulator and with actual plant data. The AAD (Average Absolute
Deviation) of modeling results with actual data is 2.07% and AAD of simulation
results with real data is 4.77%. Error values are very little and show accuracy
and precision of modeling and simulation. The predicting curve for different
parameters of </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">the </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">reactor furnace according to variable conditions and specifications
are given.</span>
